Picked up some HiPERs today from my buddy who's parting out his Z440. Would never have thought I'd buy a set of these because they are sooo expensive but I got a deal on 'em ;)

Here's how the 450R looks now:

I have never had a pair of the hyper rims. How do they hold up? Are they as strong as an aluminum beadlock? Is there someone out ther who has had both?

Ive had them both. Buy a set of hipers and you will never buy another wheel again....thats all i can say about them.

I wore through one of the nets with my boot so it sags down. Need to fix it, just been too lazy and keep forgetting!

Hipers are the lightest beadlock wheel out, im not sure by how much, but im sure its quite a bit being they are carbon fiber

My 10x9 HiPers weigh about a third of my 10x8 Billet Beadlocks. The fronts are even more light comparably to Shamrocks.
